CAS Mix Up April 2019 - Reminder for Layered Stamping With Heat Embossing - Fabulous Flamingo

Hello Everyone,
Today's card is a reminder that you still have time to join us for this months CAS Mix Up Challenge until the 24th April.  The challenge is to use Layered Stamping with Embossing powders + Stamping + your Choice.  The Flamingo has two layers of embossing powder and the outline is stamped with Stazon Black.  The outline was a bit of an issue with this stamp set, I found that it did not match the layers very well so I decided not to emboss it and found it was much easier.  All of my design elements are heat embossed and I added a bit of watercolouring on the water.

Supplies:
Stamps: S/U's Fabulous Flamingo, 
Card: Thick and Thin Whisper White, Basic Black

CAS Mix Up April 2019 - Layered Stamping With Heat Embossing

Hi Stampers,
Welcome to a new challenge at CAS Mix Up.  I am Hostess this month and I thought it might be fun to try Layered Stamping with Embossing Powders + Stamping + Your Choice.  It was a technique that I had not tried before and I enjoyed creating my card and using some of the Embossing Powders I have in my stash. The Roses have been created using some old layering stamps from Kitchen Sink and I used 4 different colours of embossing powder to create them.  The leaves have 3 layers of embossing on them.  I love how this gorgeous rose looks.  I double stamped the sentiment too, once in black and then heat embossed with gold to create a shadow and finished off with some Sequins.
Thanks to Bozena for being our Guest Designer this month.

Good Morning Stampers,
Today's post is for February's CAS Mix Up Challenge, Hideko is Hostess and wants us to use Dimensional Die-cuts + Stamping + Your Choice.  I sponged Distress Ink on my card, splattered the sponging with Water and when it was dry I Taped the back of my card where I was going to die cut the background.  I die cut the pattern and then put foam on the small diamond die cut pieces to give them dimension.  I then cut the Daisy flowers with the Succulent Framelit Dies, cut them in half  layed them on top of each other.  The centre is the little cherry from the Build a Cupcake Punch, which I sponged with Crushed Curry Ink after cutting the stem off. I then arranged the flowers and stems on the background and finished off with the Sentiment.
